Think Spring Wrap-Up

Oh please, please, please let spring arrive soon! I'm actually a big fan of snow, but at this point we are looking at another winter storm here in a couple of days, and all I can think about are warm, sunny afternoons out playing with the dog. I'm also ready for some warm weather crafts, like dyeing yarn (and hanging it outside to dry), repainting furniture (there's an old table on my front porch in need of some TLC), and lacy knitted and crocheted tops. I need to daydream about those crafts to come....

But now for some crafts past:

A knitted shawl from some handspun yarn that I started in January and finished up mid-February-

A woven heart (I used the Martha Stewart loom and this tutorial to weave this- 

A locker-hooked heart wall-hanging (using old fiber from my parents' sheep)- 

A knitted Statue of Liberty cat hat- 

A sewn patchwork owl from fabric scraps- 

A fuzzy art yarn- 

A curly, beaded art yarn- 

And finally, I finished the afghan I started last fall!!

You can see it's been a busy month! I also currently have a pair of socks and a felted bag in the works. 

I've been buying tons of craft magazines lately and just absorbing the beautiful pictures and inspiring ideas. Many different things are brewing in my head right now...I hope that at least half of them get to come to fruition! My day job is really getting in the way of my crafting time, you know? :-)

Happy crafting!
